    Dream Boat

    Thanks for passing those along Squatchout. I've really scoured the web for info. While there seems to be a lot of positive talk about the Malecite, the isn't much out there that's in depth. I can't being to count the number of times I've watched that YouTube video... It's interesting to me...

    Dream Boat

    Thanks Squatchout! Well, since yesterday was something called "Bachelorfinaleday," I got to put a coat of wax on the Malecite. She REALLY shines now. I am still impressed with her condition, and I have to continually remind myself she's 22 years old. Hopefully she paddles better than my '89...

    RTT Mounting ?

    Yakima uses something pretty close to 1 and 1/8th... But I have heard that it's a "proprietary" size.

    RTT Mounting ?

    Depending on the diameter of the Gobi tubing, you might look at these: http://www.rei.com/product/673999/yakima-universal-snaparounds-set-of-4 I know I'm not the only one using them, and I have yet to find fault with the set up. Dan

    Take Action

    Guys, There are plenty of threads on the subject. The vast majority of them are locked. These conversations are against the forum rules. Might want to take a look at the rules. Dan

    Dream Boat

    Thanks Haggis! Oh ya, we have a pair of old sit-on-tops for banging and scraping our way down the 'hooch. Mary's dad has an adventure 14 canoe (poly) that we can use, too. This is going to be for that big, flat water. I can't wait! It's hard to tell in the picture, but it has the...

    Dream Boat

    Yesterday Mary and I hauled home a new-to-me (1991, MINT condition) Mad River Canoe Malecite in Kevlar... 16'6" 47 pounds. I'm really excited about it. A little back story- We bought it from a 75 year-old gentleman in North Carolina. He purchased it new, on September 28, 1991...

    20 lb. Co2 Tank $60

    Thanks for the bump! I think $60 is pretty fair... I have a 10lb. Powertank mounted in the truck, so this is my "spare air." If it doesn't sell by this weekend to help fund the canoe, I'll probably just keep it. I have an old bar fridge for sale on craigslist, too... Maybe there is a DIY...

    I've got a Six Six One MTB helmet, and a set of upper body armor for sale. The stuff was used once, on a trip to Northstar @ Tahoe. Never crashed, perfectly clean inside and out. $100 and $60 respectively, or $150 for both. Helmet is a Large, and the armor is an Extra-Large. I might ship...

    20 lb. Co2 Tank $60

    I called Airgas this morning. They said they don't refund deposits. So, the tank is still for sale! I'm trying to buy a canoe this weekend... :snorkel: So if you're interested, shoot me an offer before Saturday and i may just take it! Thanks, Dan

    20 lb. Co2 Tank $60

    Hey thanks for the heads up! No, I didn't realize that there was a refundable deposit. The tank came out of my dad's shop, and all he said was he exchanged it at airgas. I sort of assumed it was like a blue rhino propane purchase/exchange. I'll check in with them. Thanks!

    Tire Chains/Cables

    It's probably the wrong time of year to try to sell these, but I'm cleaning out the garage. http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/pts/3657233352.html Brand new, never used, cable/chains. Per the box they will fit: 15-16 inch rims: 8.25R15, 265/70R16, 245/85R16 17-18 inch rims: 7.5R17...

    Family Vehicle Choice Predicament

    The Tahoe may be shorter than the suburban, but that puts the rear wheel wells in the rear passenger doors. I've always wanted to love the Tahoe, but the fact that the rear windows can't roll all the way down is a deal breaker for me. YMMV Dan

    WTB: Yakima X Towers #0109 for Xterra

    I don't have any, but I saw some in dusty old boxes here last time I went in... http://www.theoutsideworld.net/outside/ You might give them a call if you can't find any locally. Are they discontinued? If so, I may have to pick some up the better half's X. Dan
